Answer / dilip
Reactor is mainly use to compansate power system in both
underloaded (Inductive)and overloaded(Capacitive) condition

Answer / sadam gaad
reactor maintain the voltage, limiting short circuit
current, reducing capacitive MVAR, if you use it in series
it works as limiting short circuit current n if in parrallel
then it reduce ferranti effect.

Answer / arvind thakur
SHUNT REACTOR IS USED IN EHV TRANSMISSION LINE TO CONTROL VOLTAGE DURING LOW LOAD PERIOD.IT IS ALSO USED FOR COMPENSATE THE SHUNT CAPACITOR OF TRANSMISSION LINE DURING LOW LOAD PERIOD...
Is This Answer Correct ? | 6 Yes | 1 No |
Answer / r.mukesh
Shunt reactors are designed for connection to the ends of high voltage transmission lines or to
high-voltage cables for the purpose of controlling the line voltage by absorbing reactive power.
Is This Answer Correct ? | 5 Yes | 1 No |
Answer / r.s.naidu
using of reactor in the substations because of protected
power system from the short circuit.
Is This Answer Correct ? | 6 Yes | 5 No |
Answer / dost muhammad (mahsood )
All nuclear reactors are devices designed to maintain a chain Reaction producing a steady flow of Neutrons generated by the fission of heavy nuclei

Answer / muhammad naveed
Line reactors can protect motors and reduce power line distortion from VFDs.
Is This Answer Correct ? | 0 Yes | 3 No |
Answer / nabeel
it s to maintain the phase angle btwn volt and current. For
power factor correction actually. Also it can be said as To
control the reactive power flow.

how much current capacity 250 amp. mccb please tell me about whats are the reasons to trip 2 or 3 times in a night. and what are the steps to short out this problem
When we change the tap position of 10MVA transformer it suddenly tripped with Out of step indication and also with Static differential relay indication, Transformer Bucholz relay indn and Low oil level indication. Before 1 week the same problem occured by changing the tap position. but at that time only oltc bucholz relay activated. After testing the TxR Relay team & PET team cant find any solid reason. The values are ok also. So plz answer wat's the reason for this incident? anybody plz help.
